How restrict user registration process

[frafra85]

Hi, and excuse me for my poor english.

I'm looking for a way to restrict the registration process to particular users.

For example with a code ( that i send to my users ) to insert at registration moment. Is it possible ? Is there any way ?

Thanks,

Francesco

by default it isnt possible. If you want this feature you should edit template files of your theme.

 

yave you got any skills with php / smarty ? without this it will be painfull work for you

Could you help me ?

you have to add some {if} conditions to your template (.tpl) file

 

for example, you give to your customer special address: http://yourdomain.com/?registercode=123456789

 

then in php controllers create a cookie, for example $_COOKIE['register'] with value 1 when $_GET['registercode'] == 123456789

 

go to the authentication.tpl file and you've got there:

 

<form action="{$link->getPageLink('authentication', true)}" method="post" id="create-account_form" class="std">
 <fieldset>
  <h3>{l s='Create an account'}</h3>
  <div class="form_content clearfix">
   <p class="title_block">{l s='Please enter your email address to create an account.'}.</p>
   <div class="error" id="create_account_error" style="display:none"></div>
   <p class="text">
 <label for="email_create">{l s='Email address'}</label>
 <span><input type="text" id="email_create" name="email_create" value="{if isset($smarty.post.email_create)}{$smarty.post.email_create|stripslashes}{/if}" class="account_input" /></span>
   </p>
   <p class="submit">
 {if isset($back)}<input type="hidden" class="hidden" name="back" value="{$back|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" />{/if}
 <input type="submit" id="SubmitCreate" name="SubmitCreate" class="button_large" value="{l s='Create an account'}" />
 <input type="hidden" class="hidden" name="SubmitCreate" value="{l s='Create an account'}" />
   </p>
  </div>
 </fieldset>
</form>

 

move this code to the:

 

{if $smarty.cookies.register==1}

FORM CODE HERE

{/if}
